Responding to the growing customer requirement for ever-greater system throughput in the most demanding applications, Abaco Systems announced the innovative DSP282A 6U OpenVPX rugged multiprocessor with 40 Gigabit Ethernet. It joins the DSP282, announced earlier this year, which supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet, providing customers with the flexibility to choose the optimum price/performance for the planned deployment.
The DSP282A is designed to fulfil the requirements of very large radar systems such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and ground moving target indicator (GMTI) where minimal latency is essential for operational effectiveness. 40 Gigabit Ethernet on the backplane allows data derived from multiple high resolution sensors to be moved to the processor and then output as meaningful, actionable information in the minimum possible time.

Designed for systems deployed in the most challenging environments, the DSP282A delivers up to 665.6 GigaFLOPS of throughput per card slot as well as supporting advanced 3D graphics. This means that the DSP282A is ideally suited for a range of manned- and unmanned airborne, ground and naval applications that need maximum performance yet are highly constrained in terms of size, weight and power (SWaP).
The DSP282A features dual 5th generation Intel® Core™ i7 2.4GHz quad core processors, and leverages high performance computing (HPC) technologies that are found at the heart of the world’s largest commercial data centres, bringing them to the HPEC (high performance embedded computing) world – reducing risk, cost and time-to-market.
System integrators can minimise card count by mapping multiple platform functions such as control, DSP, image- and video processing and graphics onto one or more DSP282As in order to reduce spares and simplify logistical support in the field.
The DSP282A also brings high levels of data security with Abaco’s new on-board Security Hub and full support for the latest Intel platform security features.
Abaco’s unique AXISPro application development environment supports application optimisation for multi-core, multi-threaded and multi-node distributed system architectures across multiple operating systems including Linux®, Windows® and VxWorks® and includes quick start signal- and image processing examples to accelerate time-to-solution.
